2011 Dad Vail Regatta

The 2011 Dad Vail Regatta
will be held on Friday and Saturday May 13 and 14, 2011. The past two
years, alumni from Atlanta have loaded up the GT Crew trailer with
supplies for a spectator tent and have organized a great venue for
cheering on GT Crew along the Schuylkill River.

This year, the current GTCA board is not able to organize this
tent. However, any alumnus from any part of the country can organize
this spectating tent. The Atlanta branch of the GTCA can send up
supplies on the team's trailer and can advertise the ten to all of it's
members. This process has been done for Head of the Charles in past years, so we know it can be successful again.

The local GT club, the Delaware Valley /
Philadelphia GT alumni club, is always very fun to work with and
they usually either completely co-host the event (had a great tailgate
lunch in 2009) or have many members show up (like in 2010). Parents,
coaches and rowers spend time at the tent as well. It's great PR to have
GT shown as a major player up in Philadelphia.

The tent reservation is due by April 8, 2011. Please e-mail Events@GTCrewAlumni.org, or check out the alumni section of the Dad Vail Website
if you would like more information about planning the spectating tent
at the Dad Vail Regatta. Again, the GTCA can advertise, provide tons of
advice, and send up supplies on the GT Trailer (which the rowers will
even bring to the tent area for alumni).
